Now that the press has started to receive final, retail Wii U builds, further details about the consoles are starting to circulate.

Battery power for the Wii U Pro Controller has been reconfirmed. This will last around 80 hours, and falls in line with GameStop’s listing from a few weeks back. It takes 4.5 hours to recharge.

The GamePad’s battery life isn’t nearly as long. It’ll last for three to five hours, and takes 2.5 hours to recharge.
